The video was recorded in February 1988 in our place at castle MOKRICE and ČATEŽ OB SAVI (Slovenia) They filmed under very high security conditions...everything in a 1 km radius was closed and we thought they were having military exercises. Minor "accident" during filming : Vampire ( played by Ian McKellen) really bit the bride's neck during the filming (to swelling).......and the next day apologized her with a large bouquet of flowers. The roll of Bridge was played by then 21 years old student Daniela Čolić from Croatia. The coachman is played by Jack Bond who is also the director of this video. His face is hidden by a black scarf (video 0.31 min) It has been 35 years since then, but the castle is still magnifice.....video spot as well.
My late wife loved this song and gave here a good laugh b4 she passed away 3 years ago-Pet Shop Boys made some fabulous records and this was one of them.
My mom loved this song and since she didn't remember the title or the singer, just some random words and the video story, I searched it for hours until I found it. It was one of the last songs she heard. She enjoyed it so much and used to see and laugh at the great story with Sir Ian as a vampire. Thank you Pet Shop Boys for this and the other beautiful songs you made.
That's beautiful that your Mum was able to see this video again, I'm sure it meant a lot to her to share the experience with you as well. Sending lots of love.
@@michaeldickens7493 I love music that makes your heart feel like a teenager ! Wishing you well with the grieving process, never easy I understand .... ❤
Dear Iris, me too. since video was released in1986 , shooted in Mokrice, ex Yugoslavia. And just a few years ago, got the same info for sir Ian McKellen... but you live and you learn. Cheers
I've been a fan of the Pet Shop Boys since back in the day. I'm now 53 years old and this track brings back sweet memories...During this Corona virus lock down, I revisiting all my favourite tracks and reliving the memories...
So true...i got here from Soft Cell...which i got from watching Top of the Pops 1989 Christmas show. Those were the days...Christmas lunch watching Top of the Pops
I came back to this in a rather roundabout way - a VGM jazz cover ua-cam.com/video/i4UZAVEixq4/v-deo.html made me look up the original VGM and it of Heart. Such nostalgia 💖
When I was a kid I would stand in front of the TV whenever they played this song. My jaw dropped every single time like it was the first time I ever watched it. I was mesmerized! Makes the same effect 25 years later lol

I admit I really shouldn't have replied to Kordo by saying more like those other groups, as I don't wanna come across as being opinionated, when I think it's a fact :):) I just listen to Enola Gay and it's OK...IMHO, a little too happy, joyful sounding...Not saying, their making the Hiroshima, little boy atomic bomb a happy thing...Just the music...Just Sayin' :):)
@@davidgeerling9871 if you have never heard of OMD maybe you were living on the moon at the time.🤣🤣🤣🤣 Enola Gay is a symbolic song,its actually more about the pilot who flew the plane that dropped the bomb as a pose to the tragedy. The name of the plane was called Enola Gay, named after the pilots mother.
пиздец, только сейчас понял смысл клипа. Старый вампир передал проклятие молодому жениху, отжав у него молодую невесту и съебался из проклятого замка. И теперь брошенный жених сам стал вампиром и заложником замка и будет видимо ждать молодую джертву, чтоб избавиться от заточения и проклятия. Ротация вампиров в проклятом замке. Клипмейкеру огромный респект!!!
Loved 80s music and loved this song, Pet Shop Boys in general, and just enjoyed it, danced to it and still do. Still love this music and enjoy it so much, because it was and still is the best great era in music. Amazing and timeless.
Fantastic video. By the way, it's filmed in ex Yugoslavia in a small village Mokrice (Slovenia). The young, beautiful lady in white is a Yugoslav. No more such great music videos. Cheers !
I have came here after watching Saat Samundar Par song Indian version which is hittest here. It was made from this song only. LOVE FROM INDIA TO YUGOSLAVIA(no matter in memories only)
When I first started dating my wife in southern California back in the summer of 2012, this song happened to come on radio one night on the way home from work. She wasn't in the car, but i fell in love with her hearing this and thinking about her. We are married and have 2 kids now.
One of the great things about been a 14 year old back in 1987 was that songs like this is what was on the radio and what was played at school dances (do they still have them anymore?). Loved the Pet Shop Boys from the very beginning, seen them in concert at least 3 times now and trust me, their music never gets old! (Plus it's so cool that Gandalf/Sir Ian McKellan himself makes an appearance here!)

One of the best Music Videos ever made in the 80's. My heart's start missing a beat every time. Pet Shop Boys, was one of the new wave music pioneers in the 80's.
Ага, а у меня вообще это были 2 самые любимые группы))) Большой цветной постер a-ha у меня вообще висел над столом в комнате - специально ради него купила какой-то дорогущий музыкальный журнал - он был там в центре, сложенный в 4 раза (реально большой)). Но только это было уже не при СССР, а позже - в 90-е-00-е - я только родилась в том году, когда вышла эта песня)). А еще я была на концерте a-ha в 2006 году во время их международного тура - вот это было счастье - увидеть, стоя в первом ряду перед сценой, Мортена Харкета!)) И у меня были все до одного записи альбомов а-ha и pet shop boys, и я знала наизусть каждую строчку из каждой их песни, да и сейчас еще помню) Ростов-на-Дону)

By the way, congratultions on your good music taste and also for seeing A-ha in concert - I never did!
Blast from a gorgeous past ❤...just watched them on TV tonight...relived my younger years with pure genius of the 80's....at 50, pulls at the heart strings ❤️
Is anybody listening to this song for its own sake and not nostalgia? I started listening to this band only last week and I feel I'd been missing out all these years.
buenisimo comentario yo los vivi en el colegio los 80ss como tu papa fue especial magicos unicos los80s , los 80s lo tuvo todo no hay otra decada como los 80ss fuimos privilegiados...!!!!!
I was 30 years of age when I was blessed with this musical masterpiece now 62 and the boys are still delivering with hotspot,but heart just makes me so emotional.
Genius! Tenant, McKellan, the homage for all the British actors who were the masters of horror, the production... Still remember the first time I saw this marvellous clip decades ago. Masterpiece! ❤🙏🎼
Oh me too! I’m 50 and feel so privileged to have enjoyed the 80’s music all through my teenage years. My kids now listen to it all. I so miss those years.
Im born in 2002 and its making me nostalgic as well. Its like longing for a better time that you never got to see. But i am happy my parents made me grow up with 60s/70s/80s music and movies that they loved. Those days are timeless even for people born long after.
+maia993 : Hi Maia, I have always had an issue with Vampire movie characters...They still scare the crap out of me. It's funny isn't it, that even though vampires are fictional, yet they can still bother, unsettle and unnerve us. But I still really love listening to Pet Shop Boys, they really are Great.
I remember it was spring '88 and in primary school we were all carried away by this song with the 'vampire video' - Their videos made such an impact and they deserve more recognition for this
TOTP on a friday night around 7pm. Good times Melanie. I was born in 85 so 90s was what I can remember really. Not a day goes by without me listening to 80s music
Only Americans are obsessed with perfect teeth. And the orthodontic work frequently has the side-effect of elongating their faces, so they end up looking like Tony Robbins.
I was a child when I was listed this song over and over again, on MTv music. It was wonderful time that never will be back, everything was original , biological
Me and my Girlfriend are going to see the PSB in May can’t wait first time I would have seen them live this is my favourite PSB song great group legends
Just listened to them play this song live at the Hollywood Bowl and was spectacular!!! It felt like a once in a lifetime opportunity to see them!! I've been waiting to see them play their greatest hits for two years now since their tour got delayed!
Best Duo EVER!!!! ‘West End Girls’ heralded the dawn of their ‘Imperial Phase’, during which they scored four No.1 singles, also topping the charts with ‘It’s A Sin’ (1987), ‘Always On My Mind’ (1987) and ‘Heart’ (1988).
Every time I see you something happens to me Like a chain reaction between you and me My heart starts missing a beat My heart starts missing a beat Every time Oh oh oh, every time Oh oh oh, every time If I didn't love you, I would look around for someone else But every time I see you, you have the same effect My heart starts missing a beat My heart starts missing a beat Every time Oh oh oh, every time Oh oh oh, every time Every time I hear your heart beat next to me I'm in love with you; I mean what I say I'm in love with you, and you don't know What it means to be with you (Beat) (Beat) (Beat) (H-H-Heartbeat) (Beat) (Beat) (Beat) (H-H-Heartbeat) Every time I see you, no matter what we do There's a strange reaction, can you feel it too? My heart starts missing a beat My heart starts missing a beat Every time Oh oh oh, every time Oh oh oh, every time I hear your heart beat next to me I'm in love with you; I mean what I say I'm in love with you, and you don't know What it means to be with you Oh oh oh, every time Oh oh oh, every time Oh oh oh, every time Oh oh oh, every time (Beat) (Beat) Every time (Beat) (Beat) Every time (Beat) (H-H-Heartbeat) (Beat) (H-H-Heartbeat) (Beat) (H-H-Heartbeat) (Beat) (H-H-Heartbeat) (H-H-Heartbeat)
I was surprised no one mentioned it. Few years back when I was watching X-men I was like I know him from somewhere… and I figured it out. Such an awesome actor.
I just heard this song for the first time today, and immediately realised the following: 1. One of India's most well known song of 1980s'90s, Saat Samundar's (OST: of Vishwatma) opening tune was copied from the background tune of this song, and also... 2. The song Turn Back Time by Aqua also has a very similar type of rendering the lyrics....gn all

That crack of the whip at 4:03 is just such a perfect exclamation point on this one! Gandalf the Black looks cool too.
You know a song is so fucking good when you make so many happy thoughts and you have so many great feelings hearing it. For example this song reminds me my daughter and my heart stops missing a beat. Respect to pet shop boys! Pure quality ♥
Swedish Pet Shop Boys fan here ( Gothenburg Sweden)! You were my youth born- 74 and you stilll rock!🪨👍😘 My I'm dumb never realised before that the vampire is Ian Mckellen🧛♂️ ❣
Watching in 2020. Absolutely love this video. Campy and so 80's but so damn good! I sound like my mom now, but seriously they don't make things like they used to!
Me and my wife had the pleasure of meeting sir Ian McKellen at gay pride a few years back. I put my arm around him and had the photo printed out. One of the best days of my life 💙💙💙💙
This song wasn't as popular as 'West End Girls', ' Domino Dancing', 'It's A Sin' or 'What Have I Done To Deserve This' in America, but it sounds just as good as any of them. The Pet Shop Boys are musical geniuses.

Just because Sir Ian McKellan isn't into girls doesn't mean he won't steal yours simply because he can. Like a bank robber who's already rich.

Yep 🙋🏼♀️
Dharini S
Me too..
It's like I've been listening and addicted to it from past 2 decade
yes quality song
You have 30 years of the best music to listen.
Me encanta esta canción y el video es muy chulo, la chica guapa, gracias por compartir. Un saludo. 💋💌💘💔
Mi papá los ama, él me enseñó este grupo, tengo 31 años desde niña los escuchaba y me encanta
buenisimo comentario yo los vivi en el colegio los 80ss como tu papa fue especial magicos unicos los80s , los 80s lo tuvo todo no hay otra decada como los 80ss fuimos privilegiados...!!!!!
@@renesalazar867 siiiii la época de la mejor música!!!! ❤
@@renesalazar867 es verdad... Tienes razon
One of their finest songs..and you get the bonus of having Sir Ian Mckellen playing a vampire in the video as well.
Double win.
I was about to say "hey its gandalph!!" Used to watch this as a kid and didn't know it was him.
Hear hear!
He wasn't a big film star back then, so it was probably easier.
Sir Ian McKellen is a national treasure not just as actor but great ambassador for the LGBT community god bless him

I was 30 years of age when I was blessed with this musical masterpiece now 62 and the boys are still delivering with hotspot,but heart just makes me so emotional.
There is no doubt they are one of the most iconic bands of 80's pop new wave and synth music, a lot with the synths, fantastic.
Genius!
Tenant, McKellan, the homage for all the British actors who were the masters of horror, the production...
Still remember the first time I saw this marvellous clip decades ago. Masterpiece! ❤🙏🎼
The 80s music arouses so much longing in those of us who lived through it. I'm fortunate to be one of them.
Oh me too! I’m 50 and feel so privileged to have enjoyed the 80’s music all through my teenage years. My kids now listen to it all. I so miss those years.
@@alexandralusco I hear u. I'm 47.
Im born in 2002 and its making me nostalgic as well. Its like longing for a better time that you never got to see. But i am happy my parents made me grow up with 60s/70s/80s music and movies that they loved. Those days are timeless even for people born long after.
I remember watching this video when I was a kid on TV. Damn that vampire used to freak me out ! It still does in some way :P
+maia993 yeah, same here! But in the same time it was kind of exciting ;)
Played by the superb Ian McKellen
+Sparklelass Bloody hell!! Never knew that! Haha what a surprise and now I know it's so obvious!
+maia993 : Hi Maia, I have always had an issue with Vampire movie characters...They still scare the crap out of me.
It's funny isn't it, that even though vampires are fictional, yet they can still bother, unsettle and unnerve us.
But I still really love listening to Pet Shop Boys, they really are Great.
Mark Law
Oh well .. They 're creepy
haha Keep a cross with you .. then
Pet Shop Boys are really good actually , I like them too
I remember it was spring '88 and in primary school we were all carried away by this song with the 'vampire video' - Their videos made such an impact and they deserve more recognition for this
Это моя юность! Такая ностальгия... Спасибо за ваши песни!
one of their best, definetely underrated
Ditto
I played this song on my walkman at least a gazillion times in the summer of 88 while picking grapes in Oz... memories!
Могу бесконечно признаваться в любви. Не знаю читают они коменты. Реально они жизнь мне спасают. Люблю с 1986года.
This makes me feel sooooo old - I remember watching this on TOTP as a kid!! My sister used to record all of these on the Betamax!!
TOTP on a friday night around 7pm. Good times Melanie. I was born in 85 so 90s was what I can remember really. Not a day goes by without me listening to 80s music
0% nudity
0% autotune
0% foul language
100% crooked teeth
But.......100% music, 100% melody, 100%lyrics, 100% beats, 100% well engineered and..........100% pretty darn good music these 80s music is!
The best description of British Pop Groups of the 80's...
to...early..4 u..2 express ur self....STOP...SMOKING CRACK KKK
Only Americans are obsessed with perfect teeth. And the orthodontic work frequently has the side-effect of elongating their faces, so they end up looking like Tony Robbins.
100% magneto, 100% gandalf
I wouldn't mind pulling up to my castle, with 4 violinists playing away outside. You know you've made it in life.
Absolute f**king belter of a tune!
Still remembering my childhood with this best ever song made. Thnx PSB
I was a child when I was listed this song over and over again,
on MTv music. It was wonderful time that never will be back, everything was original , biological
The one time I met Sir Ian I asked him which mad Genius thought up the idea of him and Tenant fighting over a girl.... He laughed loud.
if I was married to Neil i would never cheat with sir Ian xD
Never knew was Sir Ian McKellen!! Flipping heck!! Both gay fighting over a beautiful bride! Who knew. Fave song after ‘What Have I Done..’
@@juliettedunn2195 Well, she does look like a dude
@@juliettedunn2195 It's like two straight men fighting over Keanu Reeves. It might not make sense, but it has to be done.
@@omegametroyd nooo. Just look at those great legs ♥️
Me and my Girlfriend are going to see the PSB in May can’t wait first time I would have seen them live this is my favourite PSB song great group legends
Ian Mckellen as an Orlok-esque vampire is just perfect.
Who listen this beautiful song in 2020?
Me on 2021!
Me in 2021. I love this!
2021 yo
Even on 2021!
Me 1980
Sir Ian McKellen as the vamipire!
Ian the vamp 😂😂😂😂
yes
Looks like Bela Lugosi, even though he passed years ago. ..
I was just gonna ask that. Thx
Aqui brasil em 01/01/19 .
Es una obra de arte, un cuadro del renacimiento hecho en el siglo xx
Just listened to them play this song live at the Hollywood Bowl and was spectacular!!! It felt like a once in a lifetime opportunity to see them!! I've been waiting to see them play their greatest hits for two years now since their tour got delayed!
Best Duo EVER!!!! ‘West End Girls’ heralded the dawn of their ‘Imperial Phase’, during which they scored four No.1 singles, also topping the charts with ‘It’s A Sin’ (1987), ‘Always On My Mind’ (1987) and ‘Heart’ (1988).
42 Top 30 singles. 22 of which were Top 20 ! Awesome legacy.
"Domino Dancing" No. 1 in Spain.
Splendid Isolation
Every time I see you something happens to me
Like a chain reaction between you and me
My heart starts missing a beat
My heart starts missing a beat
Every time
Oh oh oh, every time
Oh oh oh, every time
If I didn't love you, I would look around for someone else
But every time I see you, you have the same effect
My heart starts missing a beat
My heart starts missing a beat
Every time
Oh oh oh, every time
Oh oh oh, every time
Every time
I hear your heart beat next to me
I'm in love with you; I mean what I say
I'm in love with you, and you don't know
What it means to be with you
(Beat)

There's a strange reaction, can you feel it too?
My heart starts missing a beat
My heart starts missing a beat
Every time
Oh oh oh, every time
Oh oh oh, every time
I hear your heart beat next to me
I'm in love with you; I mean what I say
I'm in love with you, and you don't know
What it means to be with you

БОЖЕСТВЕННО КРАСИВАЯ
ДЕВУШКА!!!
Для меня они все такие!
Love Sir Ian McKellen in this. He’s an absolute legend 🙏🏽🙏🏻
I was surprised no one mentioned it. Few years back when I was watching X-men I was like I know him from somewhere… and I figured it out. Such an awesome actor.
When I was around 6 years old this one of my favourite music videos. No wonder that when I grew up I turned into a fan of metal music!
I love how in this video, everyone is so devoid of energy except the violinists and Sir Ian.
I just heard this song for the first time today, and immediately realised the following:
1. One of India's most well known song of 1980s'90s, Saat Samundar's (OST: of Vishwatma) opening tune was copied from the background tune of this song, and also...
2. The song Turn Back Time by Aqua also has a very similar type of rendering the lyrics....gn all
That crack of the whip at 4:03 is just such a perfect exclamation point on this one!
Gandalf the Black looks cool too.
как же я в детстве обожала этот клип!)
Узнала Гендальфа в старом вампире???
Wonderful song and video!!! Kisses to Pet Shop Boys Fans from Italy!!!
Elisabetta WomanInLilac 😍Great Love PET Shop Boys❤
Loved this song all those years ago when they first released it and still sounds good today. Deliciously dark and tongue in cheek.
my mom said this was her favorite song from the pet shop boys and i'm starting to love it to
It was PSB' time. 1987 - 1988. It's a sin. Rent. Always on my mind. Heart. Domino Dancing. This song was #1 in UK & in Germany
This song was a UK no.1 hit in April '88.
that's hands down the most beautiful goddess of a woman I've seen in a music video, ever.
You know a song is so fucking good when you make so many happy thoughts and you have so many great feelings hearing it. For example this song reminds me my daughter and my heart stops missing a beat. Respect to pet shop boys! Pure quality ♥
I'm listening to it in 2019! shivers down my spine!
Who listen this 30 years later??? 😲 😅 1988-2018 👍
i do
Pls stop
Me. I hear this song in my head every time I think of a certain someone I'm in love with but can never have... :/
Top song iTunes
I was born in 1988. so this song is 30 years old lol ...
maybe that's why i love this song so fucking much.
Swedish Pet Shop Boys fan here ( Gothenburg Sweden)! You were my youth born- 74 and you stilll rock!🪨👍😘
My I'm dumb never realised before that the vampire is Ian Mckellen🧛♂️
❣
I absolutely loved this as a teenager, still walloping fire🔥🔥🎶🎵
Watching in 2020. Absolutely love this video. Campy and so 80's but so damn good! I sound like my mom now, but seriously they don't make things like they used to!
Te amo
Holy smoke! Gendalf is vampire!
You mean Magneto ? 😆
☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺Very true!
Is magneto
YOU SHALL NOT BITE!!!!
Iae gleyson
Me and my wife had the pleasure of meeting sir Ian McKellen at gay pride a few years back. I put my arm around him and had the photo printed out. One of the best days of my life 💙💙💙💙
This should have gotten an award...Chris, I assume, plays the jealous chauffeur...luv this
Pop Masterpiece!!!!
This song wasn't as popular as 'West End Girls', ' Domino Dancing', 'It's A Sin' or 'What Have I Done To Deserve This' in America, but it sounds just as good as any of them.
The Pet Shop Boys are musical geniuses.
No.1 in UK Chart 1988
@@xy5230 True, but not here in America.
It was my favourite at the time.
It was megapopular and a megahit all around the world, except for that strange country.
This was always my fave from them tbh.
Buenísimos escuchando a estos maestros me traslado a una epoca muy feliz de mi vida
Brilliant track
